Howdy...

I'm a descendant of Thomas Gayton that moved from Tipperary to Nova Scotia...

Much of our family history was written in 1917 by Albert Gayton, and he died soon afterwards, and Yarmouth Press in 1918 published the "Gayton Geneology", which has tones of info in it (I have a photo copy of it someplace)My father was the last one listed in our branch of the family (George Gayton Morehouse-1912)...

At one point the Gayton & Morehouse families were married (Kilburn?), and at some point the tie between William Henry Morehouse, John Avard Gayton Morehouse, is a little hazy of where they fit in with the rest of the Gayton's & Morehouse's...and Keith Morehouse's branch (via Emily Gayton?)in South Dakota (his brother was the late William Morehouse, an artist of some reknown)...

I've enjoyed seeing references to many familier family names here...

I don't know if Roger Gayton is still around...his email address in his old posts are invalid & have probably changed since then...

I live in the North Coast area of California, and I'm a radio DJ, and I like BBQ & chocolate (who doesn't..???), and also cowboy poetry...

I'd like to hear from all my distant cousins...maybe I'll try to locate my box of family stuff...
